Woah! Thank you so much for the info on the eclipses! I had an abortion in 2012 on July 2, when the sun was at exactly 9 degree cancer (I know that's a whole year after the 2011 cancer eclipse, but still, strange) I'll check more into the eclipses.
And no I do not have the motorcyclists birth info, if I could remember his name it may be online somewhere like in an obituary but I was told his name several times in court and it was on some paperwork but every single time I couldn't remember the name, and this is very unlike me- I have a steel trap memory for names and numbers. I remember the date and time of the accident but I do not remember the name of the motorcyclist. Maybe this year I'll look it up again because I am curious and see what I can find.
I know the moon plays a major role in my life because of my natal cancer moon and the moon is my final dispositer for every planet except saturn thru Neptune (for those, saturn is final dispositer, in its ruling sign)
One thing thing I noticed about the eclipses for this year Is that one, on September 1 2016 occurs on my sisters birthday, so conjunct her sun and it'll be in her solar return. The chart I drew up for the exact moment of the eclipse (5:03 pm EST on 9/1/16) the chart has my solar return MC on the ASC and my solar return ASC on the IC exact.
Oddly, my SR ASC for this year is exactly conjunct my mothers natak ASC, so the eclipse also brings her natal MC to the ASC, and her natal ASC is on the eclipse IC.
There's no strong connection to my fathers chart, except in his solar return he has a vertex of 9 taurus which is conjunct the MC of the eclipse exact, and conjunct my mothers DSC abd my SR DSC. He also has pluto exact conjunct his SR IC. (For 2016 SR which hasn't happened yet but it'll be just before the eclipse, his birthday is 8/22/58) so its also this whole year is my dads second saturn return.
(And happy birthday to my mom ! Her 55th birthday is today, 2/19/61. She has a 12 house solar return today with saturn exactly conjunct the MC of the SR. )
All this kind of got me worried , as my sister who has the eclipse in her chart also has an 8 house SR this year, and I have that also.
Oddly, another thing I noticed is that my progressed vertex is at 9 scorpio currently. That's exactly conjunct the degree of ASC in my 2016 SR. The vertex will progress to 10 scorpio by the time I have the return, but I still say that's pretty closely conjunct. Its also conjunct my natal pluto of 12 scorpio.
I checked the vertex in my SR and its at 26 Gemini, exactly conjunct my SR moon in 8th. Uranus will also be in opposition to my natal vertex/conjunct anti vertex at 22 degree Aries this year for me.
Then, very strangely,the vertex in my dads 2016 solar return is at 9 taurus which is exactly opposite my progressed vertex/also conjunct my 2016 SR DSC and conjunct my mother's natal DSC.
On top of that, my dads SR moon is in 6th but 2 degrees orb conjunct the DSC at 11 Aries which is exactly conjunct his natal vertex.
My grandmas are very old, so if they pass away this year, i would be very sad but understanding that it was their time. However if one of my parents , Me or my sister passes away I would be devestated. I'm trying not to obsess over it but I can't help but think seeing all these coincedences that something major has to happen.
Unless, maybe families always have these coincidences in their charts but I'm just now noticing them now I'm getting more into astrology? I haven't look in depth at all our charts from previous years so maybe they are linked every year.
I checked the transits and those looked very calm (except mine which are terrible- jupiter thru 5th but square sun and jupiter exact, saturn thru 8th opposition sun exact, uranus thru 12th square moon and mars exact and conjunct anti vertex, neptune thru 11th almost squaring sun (2 degree orb), pluto thru 9th almost opposition moon (1 degree orb) pluto and Neptune will make exact transits to my sun or moon in 2017.
However my family all have pretty safe transits except my mom has neptune completing a 4th house transit, my dad has Saturn returning to his natal 3rd, and he has uranus transiting 7th, but getting close to entering 8th in 2017, pluto is also transiting my dads 4th house. Pluto was conjunct my dads IC when I was in that car accident , and neptune was conjunct my mothers sun in her natal 4th. My sister has saturn transiting her 9th squaring her sun and Jupiter, in opposition to her mars (which is conjunct her natal IC) so saturn will move into her 10th just after opposing her mars. My sister also has pluto in 10th about to enter 11th in 2017. The rest of the transits are positive for my family as far as I can tell. Thank you for your attention to this stuff and for taking the time to read it! I'm such a lengthy writer (Gemini sun, mercury in Taurus /Taurus ASC plus moon in 3rd)
I'm going to try and not worry so I don't project fear onto the situation and make it worse but I feel like even if every member of my family traveled for our birthdays to get a better SR that it wouldn't help or change whats going to happen. I'm wondering if the strength of these returns and transits indicate a major tragedy, or a less major one, such as the death of an old sick grandparent. I guess I'm stressed a little after seeing all the coincidences !
My grandmother's are both very old and sick. One is going to be 87 on may 27 (5/27/29 is her bday) and she has emphezema, the other is going to be 81 on her birthday the day after mine, 6/7/35, and she has diabetes and several other issues that have her in private home care. The sicker one, the one in private home care has a 5th house SR this year with the grand cross in succeedent houses just like mine (but my SR is in the 8th) and she has natal 7 on the ASC, deff indicating dependence on others. But I was worried that the challenged sun in the 5th indicated problems with her children (my mom)
I know only time will tell and I hope for the best for all of us.
and so with hindsight you realise
you had grown impatient
furthermore
the sun in decline towards the horizon was shining in your eyes
but despite uncertainty regarding what was visible
due to impatience you turned the vehicle
perhaps Mars on the descendant opposing the ascendant
proved too strong encouragement to do that
however keep in mind
that the although the stars impel, they do not compel
that is understandable
however keep in mind the subtle difference between GUILT and RESPONSIBILITY
certainly you had a choice at one stage
in the moments before you turned the vehicle
whether to turn or not
you are definitely responsible for making that choice to turn at that moment
and that choice was made due to your impatience at the usual 5 o'clock traffic
which EXPLAINS your action
but does not EXCUSE it
however
you are not responsible for the actions of other people
just your own actions
so in that situation your action was IRRESPONSIBLE
because
it is important to be cautious of other drivers who are on the road with you
and it seems
the motorcyclist appears to have been acting thoughtlessly as well
by suddenly appearing from behind a truck
neither you nor the motorcyclist could possibly have known the real risk
of your combined actions
however you BOTH were acting recklessly
the motorcyclist by appearing suddenly from behind a truck
and you by giving in to an urge to turn the vehicle while impatiently ignoring the sun dazzling your eyes
the motorcyclist was in the right nevertheless because they had the right of way
but just the same the motorcyclist took a risk
and the motorcyclist took that risk
relying on the other motorists to allow their right of way
unfortunately you were being reckless
and so the motorcyclist ultimately paid the price for your rash decision
however
there were mitigating circumstances
so you did not serve prison time
and
viewing the chart of the event, Mars is clearly seen on the descendant opposing the ascendant
clearly it is possible the motorcyclist was 'egged by Mars' to thoughtlessly take that risk
of appearing from behind a truck
and
the motorcyclist could not have seen your vehicle because the truck obscured their view
but
he had the right of way
and so there was a tragic accident
It is useful to keep in mind that ECLIPSES played a major role in those particular events of 31 July 2011
we do not have the motorcyclists natal chart but we have your charts as posted
and so
I checked my own paper copies of AMERICAN EPHEMERIS FOR THE 20TH CENTURY
and
AMERICAN EPHEMERIS FOR THE 21 CENTURY
both are available on amazon
I use these because
the 9000 year online FREE Ephemeris at http://www.astro.com/swisseph/swepha_e.htm does not include eclipses
eclipses are fairly rare
there being only approximately five per year
although some years there are more
other years less
There is a site that lists astronomical eclipse data
but not astrological eclipse data at http://www.astro.com/swisseph/swepha_e.htm
the following is
some of the ECLIPSE DATA I researched
and then compared with the various charts you posted:
1 June 2011 SOLAR ECLIPSE at 11º Gemini was on your natal Sun ruler of natal 4th
furthermore
at that SOLAR ECLIPSE transiting Mercury was on the degree of your natal Mercury
then another eclipse a fortnight later
15 June 2011 was the day of a full moon LUNAR ECLIPSE on 24º Sagittarius
that's the ascending degree of the event chart you posted
1 July 2011 there was another SOLAR ECLIPSE at 9º Cancer
in a challenging square aspect with your 2011 SOLAR RETURN SATURN
that's just skimming the surface
